25 Days of Christmas Tags '13 - Day 19

Welcome back to Day 19 of 25 Days of Christmas Tags!

Today my guest is the fabulous Virginia Lu! Virginia's blog is Yes, Virginia and if you haven't been there before you are in for a treat. She embraces new techniques and creates the most stunning pieces of art. Virginia and I were on the Fresh Squeezed Stamps design team last term and I have had the pleasure of meeting Virginia a couple times and was actually dining this past summer in her dining room. Her food is every bit as good as it looks! She is so sweet and would do anything for you. Today, for me, she created this fantastic paint chip tag. I hope you get over to her blog to leave her some love and have a look around, you won't be disappointed.

Today I used the the Lil' Inker folding tag die to make two sweet tags. If you haven't figured it out I love Christmas and I love jingle bells. My first tag has two sequin embellished Holly Jolly trees and the second tag the smallest holly from the Holly Jolly with a sequin for the berry. I love making some tags in non traditional holiday colours.

I'm nearly speechless with how beautiful today's tags are (as are the others, but these are especially captivating!). Virginia's are darling, and yours: gorgeous! Where, oh where, did you find that amazing paper? And the Lil' Inkers Holly Jolly dies are going on my list immediately! Going back to gaze and admire for a while longer...c

Your non-traditional color (pink!!) are so pretty! The added Christmas tree diecut and sequins are pure icing on the cake! Love it, Tracey! And thank you for asking me to guest design and for your kind words!! You are such a sweetie!xoxo

Hi my Love Tracey, I love these tags. I picked up some paint chip books at a thrift store, now I know what to do with them....lol I love your trees. I am a follower of your awesome blog and Pinterest boards. Love Ya' Patricia

What a great way Virginia found to use paint chips ... these are fabulous! The colours on your tags are gorgeous, Tracey ... I love the pink with the traditional red and green ... and I share your love of those sweet little jingle bells! Anita :)

Such fabulous inspiration today, Tracey. Virginia's tags are spectacular, and I am on my way over there to tell her that. And, yours are just darling. I am in love with your colorscheme and those papers, and thanks for reminding me I have those tag dies that I completely forgot about.
